Defeated Sanity Announce 2027 European & UK Tour with Revocation

More information about Chronicles of Lunacy
Reports of the band’s recent shows return to the same point: the music is complex and the delivery is exact, yet nothing about it is polite. A review of their Offal Fest set in Manchester in July 2025 described a performance that was precise and feral at once, with Josh Welshman’s growls carrying live and a crowd that did not hold back. A write-up of a 2025 US date called them one of the most locked-in bands the writer had seen, noting how groove-heavy sections cut against polyrhythmic, syncopated passages.
The tour follows a 2025 spent on the road behind Chronicles of Lunacy, the band’s seventh album, released through Season of Mist on November 22nd, 2024, with European dates early in the year, festival appearances including Brutal Assault, and a North American run in the autumn. Recorded in New York City with producer Colin Marston at Thousand Cave Studios, the record is a deliberate return to neck-snapping brutality that still hits from every odd angle, with each of its eight songs taking on a different form of mental corruption, from religious fanaticism to the mind of a killer. Psalms of the Moribund remains the band’s touchstone for rawness, and playing it front to back sets this European return apart from a standard album-cycle tour. The line-up is Lille Gruber on drums, Jacob Schmidt on bass, Josh Welshman on vocals and Vaughn Stoffey on guitar.
